Easter

On of of my favorite holidays, one of my favorite churches. This is Sacred Heart in South Scranton. The photos do not do it justice. The twin steeples tower above the neighborhood.

Unfortunately, the usual problems of wires all over the place made it impossible to get a clean picture of the place. WNEP veteran photographer Steve Smallwood once told me that if you shoot an object from a distance, the wires become less noticeable. Steve is right. The wires are still an annoyance, but less so when you walk down the block.

So why do I like Easter? It's more than chocolate bunnies and marshmallow peeps. There's a sense of renewal and springtime. It's hard to describe, but you know the feeling.
